| 1328 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.3/AP. Experimental Department 8th July 1937 The British Thermostat Co.Ltd., Teddington Works, Windmill Road, Sunbury-on-Thames, MIDDLESEX. For the attention of Mr.Martin-Hurst. Dear Sirs, We are anxious to obtain a car heater built up by Messrs Marstons for test purposes, and while discussing this with Mr.Dunn of John Marstons Ltd., he told us that they could not proceed any further with their heater until they received a sample motor from you. We should like to know whether you can give us any idea as to when you will have a motor available for this purpose, as there is a possibility that we may make a car heater a standard fitting in the future and we wish to carry out numerous tests with that end in view. We are awaiting a reply to our letter of the 3rd. inst. re thermostats. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
